How to stick a wreath to a mirror?

I said I wasn't going to buy anything VPH, but I do like that pumpkin wreath. Any idea if she'll bring on a more "fall" wreath or is this the fall wreath? (Probably no one knows, but I thought I'd ask.)

Anyway, I do have another wreath of hers which I was thinking to stick on the large mirror over the fireplace, and I am sure there must be a way to secure it, but I'm not sure what it is.

Command Hooks by 3M are my friend....use them for everything, never damages the surface and can be removed easily and some of the larger one's are for heavy items.

Valerie was using a suction cup hook on the set, but I'm always afraid that those will fall down. I have used Command hooks, but you must be very careful removing them. Do not pull up at all or you'll damage the underlying surface, although a mirror should be fairly safe, unlike a painted or porous surface.

They make the Command hooks in clear now. I don't think the wreath is very heavy, so a hook that holds up to 3 pounds should be more than adequate. I used THIS version last year to hold large letters made of boxwood leaves to some glass over pictures.

Thank you, everyone. Suction cups can "give up" so I'll look for the Command Hooks.

I use suction hooks, yes they do fall sometimes, but I just put them back up! Also, use them for outside at Christmas to put wreaths on my windows outside!

years ago QVC used to sell some large suction cup hooks. They were perfect and never gave up. They came in a set - I still have many of them.

try googling Snap hooks.

Another vote for Command Hooks. They are amazing!

I use a large suction cup hanger to hold my wreaths on my storm door. Hasn't failed yet. It's been there through rain, sleet and snow. Just make sure you clean your mirror before you try to use one.

I use fishing line to hang a wreath in my front door. It's cheap and you can't see it. Put a small nail or tack on the top of the mirror to hang it from. 3m hooks work good too.
